Northumbria University’s Records Management Research Team would like to
announce the availability of the following publications:
‘Assessing the impact of ISO 15489 in the UK – Final Project Report’
http://northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/ceis/re/isrc/themes/rmarea/iso/
This details the findings of an AHRC funded project which assessed the
impact of ISO 15489 in the UK from 2003-2005. It investigated which kinds
of organisations had adopted the standard, how and why and explored the
extent to which standards influence management practice and behaviour by
monitoring 50 UK organisations and investigating four case study
organisations in-depth.
‘A guide to records management capacity and compliance toolkits’ and ‘A
critical assessment of records management capacity and compliance
toolkits – Final Project Report’
http://northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/ceis/re/isrc/themes/rmarea/tlkit/
These are a guide to four toolkits for assessing records management
capacity and/or compliance and a report of the AHRC funded research
project which evaluated the toolkits. The toolkits are: the IGT
(Information Governance Toolkit) developed by the United Kingdom National
Health Service Information Authority; the IMCC (Information Management
Capacity Check) Tool and Methodology developed by the Library and Archives
Canada; RMCAS (Records Management Capacity Assessment System) developed by
the International Records Management Trust; and RiskProfiler developed by
ARMA International and NetDiligence.
The Records Management Research Team is part of the Information and
Knowledge Systems Research Group at Northumbria University’s School of
Computing, Engineering & Information Sciences. Their website contains
summaries, project reports and other outputs of completed and current
projects. http://northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/ceis/re/isrc/themes/rmarea/
